The third game in the series, which will be shown to press during the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco next month, is set for release this coming fall, Electronic Arts confirmed.

The publisher revealed the first teaser trailer for the game on its official website tonight. The trailer, which contains no actual gameplay, displays quick cuts of helicopters, ground troops, tanks and fighter jets.

Additional details courtesy of the official Battlefield Blog confirm a full single-player and co-op campaign, jets, prone, and 64-player multiplayer for the PC version. The Frostbite 2 engine will power the game and a Limited Edition will be revealed around GDC.

Developer DICE confirmed earlier this morning it was canceling the release of Battlefield 1943 and the Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Onslaught pack for PC.

I am done buying COD/MW titles. Haven't played BF ever, but I hear it is much more team oriented. I am trying to convince all my friends to make the switch since we like team play the most. Tired of arcade style run and shoot.

you'll never go back to COD.

Playing black ops is like a cartoon. You can feel the sweat with this shit.

Meh, BF never gets as intense as COD. It also doesn't take as much skill.

I was a loyal COD player until BO and I can't say the game play is all that much different. COD is more of a loner game while BC2 does require more teamwork depending on what game you choose, so in that aspect I think BC2 takes more skill. I'm not so sure about the intensity either, both can get pretty intense it all depends on the match. COD generally has some smaller maps and with those there is more chaos, so I guess you could call that more intense but I think its more about personal preference.

As far as shooting and killing, I think COD games take more skill than BFBC2, but then again, I never played BFBC2 on Hardcore. I guess BC2 did get pretty intense in some Rush matches.

If I've got my ping going well I'm unbeatable at COD, just not that fun.

Agreed. While i'm not a huge fan of either series, i've played both for a fair amount of time. CoD is very arcade-ish, Battlefield is more strategic. Both have their niche.

I WAS a huge fan of cod, but then they started coming out with new titles every year and a half 2 years so i stopped buying them(besides Black OPS for the zombies) and i would have to agree with this statement. Cod is run and gun while bf is WAY more team oriented.
